"It was extremely loud," said the Hidden Meadows subdivision resident. "It felt like we were at a concert, and we were a mile away."

Victoria Police Department records showed at least six loud noise complaints called in against the restaurant's out-door concert.

Fanninn Feldmann, service manager of Texas Roadhouse, said the restaurant tried their best to adhere to the police officers' instructions.

"Everything (the police) told us to do, we complied with them. If they told us to turn (the music) down, then we did," said Feldmann. "We only got two noise complaints from people I spoke to on the phone."

Feldmann said the restaurant tried to inform residents of the event ahead of time. This included doing radio and television spots and going door-to-door in some cases.

"We made personal visits to all the houses behind Texas Roadhouse," Feldmann said.

She added that they also gave out gift bags, including free peanuts and a coupon for free appetizers to those residents who received personal visits.

In a further attempt at courteousness, Feldmann said the restaurant ended the event earlier than previously advertised, shutting the music down at 11 p.m. rather than 11:30 p.m.

"We chose to shut ourselves down rather than be told to shut down," Feldmann said.

Residents in close proximity to the venue had mixed reviews about the high decibel levels permeating from the event.
